6 Reasons Why "Bad" Girls Get Married To Good Guys
Ever wondered why bad girls get good guys? Take a look at this. Bad girls as seen by most people in the society are girls who are excessively social.They are brave, outgoing and daring. They seem to enjoy life to the fullest while partying hard. These are some of the girls whose lives revolve round being in clubs and never missing a happening event in the society. They know the most talked about people and are able to identify the rich and wealthy guys.
Below are some insights as to why the bad girls get hooked to the good guys.
Bad girls are smart
These girls are outgoing ladies who know how to mingle. They are ‘not dulling’ in the real sense of the word. They are most times beautiful ladies who are fashion as and pull attraction everywhere they step into. They understand that most of the good men out there have careers and could be wealthy. And to ease off the built up tension of work and other life issues, they pass out time in the clubs and bars. The good girls are hardly found in this kind of setting.
Force of attraction
Basic knowledge of Physics could be likened to real life situation here. Just like when objects that are electrically neutral with equal amounts of neutrons (negative charge) and protons (positive charge) connect when in close proximity, two individuals with different life styles bond too. Just as the protons could become negatively charged and the neutrons positively charged, the bad girl and the good guy would influence each other until they reach equilibrium. They become perfect for each other.
More experienced
The bad girls are often ‘long legged’. They seem to have been everywhere and have heard things that could guide them in their sojourn in life. They know things the good girls don’t and have firsthand experience of places. They have the ability to place the men who approach them and identify the exceptionally good ones among them. They know the players and understand the ‘no-time-to-waste-men’. They recognise potentials in the men once they see them and go extra miles to keep the men attracted to them.
Se xual satisfaction
Like most good girls who keep their legs closed, some bad girls keep theirs even closer. They taunt the men until they have built up a se xual tension in them. However, most of the bad girls are wild. They seem to explore always and know how to please the men. They could take men to different pleasurable heights before pushing them over the edge. They leave the guys in cloud nine at the end of the whole thing. Every guy wants a woman that would drive him wild in bed and give him an unforgettable time. So the bad girl is picked over the good ones here.
Relativity
One man’s meat is another man’s poison, they say. This explains why some men would deliberately choose a bad girl over a good girl even when they know about their escapades. Some bad girls after settling down with good men become submissive and trade their old habits for good ones. Men’s choice can’t be fully ascertained as one could never be sure of the magnetic force between them and the bad girls.
Compulsory retirement
There’s time for everything. The bad girls can’t remain bad forever. They get tired of their old ways at certain points in time. They calm down and mellow when they have seen it all. This doesn’t make them less desirable, they remain piping hot because they maintain their dress sense and good looks. In fact, they become better people with improved mannerism and are able to live responsibly after.

Olamide Vs Don Jazzy: Read Charles Novia's Interesting Take
The Headies 2015 (which ironically held on the first day of 2016) was an anti-climax after that. And perhaps the public tantrums of both Don Jazzy and Olamide were the highlights of what was before then an above average telecast with glaring lapses which could have been remedied with more precision.
When the artistes nominated in the ‘Next Rated’ category were shown in a mini-documentary somewhere in the show, taking photo-ops in the Hyundai SUV and pleading for votes from their fans so as to win the prize, I told myself after seeing the earnest expectations on their faces that this category would surely be competitive but would have some bad blood drawn thereafter.
The visuals of the four nominated acts seated side-by-side in the hall thereafter, being interviewed by the Hip TV Presenter just before the category was announced also showed an unease amongst them even if they were trying to put up aloof facades.
Korede Bello, Kiss Daniel, L’il Kesh and Reekado Banks. Four nominees in perhaps the ‘closest-to-call’ category in The Headies ever. Looking at the list, they each had hits in 2015. But in my personal opinion ( which I’m entitled to, innit?) I would have pruned the list at the final stage to just two; Korede Bello and Kiss Daniel.
‘Godwin’ was probably the biggest song of 2015, transcending both the secular and gospel charts and finding resonance all across Africa. How could such a song not get the artiste a winner in that category? On the other hand, ‘Woju’ by Kiss Daniel was another monster hit in 2015 which certainly would have won him that prize without raising eyebrows.
With due respect to Reekado Banks, I don’t think his ‘ Katapot’ track was that much of a phenomenal hit in 2015 but it was a good track. And L’il Kesh too, who was touted by Olamide as having back to back hits in 2015 ( by his reckoning) stood a chance as well but I would say a misfit of personal branding by the YBNL team for Kesh might have added to his loss in that category. Club and dance hits are different from acclaimed general hits when it comes to the brass tacks and ‘Gbese Re’ was huge on the club and dance circuits but can’t be termed a huge hit compared to Korede’s and Kiss’
Thus, when Reekado won, I was one of the surprised folks watching on television. Obviously this didn’t go down well with Olamide, on whose label Kesh is signed on to and he went on a profane and perhaps alcohol-induced rant onstage a few minutes later, calling out the organisers and storming off the stage thereafter.
Don Jazzy, the acclaimed Producer, who is the Head Huncho at Mavin Records which has Reekado as one of its acts, picked up the gauntlet a few minutes after while receiving his Lifetime Achievement Award and called out Olamide. He asked Olamide to come take the car won by Reekado and stormed out of the awards with his crew.
Olamide later went on twitter to rant more expletives on Don Jazzy.
Both artistes were wrong on many fronts. For Olamide, his open inebriation on stage calls for much questioning of his public conduct when he’s not in performance mode. As he boasts in his songs, he might have packed halls and swayed trends in the past year but trying a Kanye West onstage at The Headies was ill-advised. One should ask this question ( which I will also throw at Don Jazzy later as well) that if L’il Kesh had back to back hits as Olamide claimed, why didn’t YBNL deem it fit to buy him a car ( if he hasn’t any) all these months?
And Don Jazzy too should have stuffed it when he said that he had told Korede and Reekado not to bother themselves about the car if they didn’t win because he would buy them a car. Really? Did he mean to tell us that with all the shows and endorsements both acts had last year under his management, there wasn’t any ‘change’ left to buy his acts cars?
If that’s the case, something is wrong somewhere.
Don Jazzy screwed up though by calling out Olamide in his speech especially as Olamide never mentioned his name. But to a discerning mind, it seems those two had festering issues before last night and that incident was the last straw.
Mutual discontent and petty misgivings are common in the entertainment industry. I am never fooled by put-on smiles and show of camaderie most times by artistes as they are human like everyone else. What sets off animousities are usually a struggle for a space on top; a definition of ambitious egos or just plain loathing for petty reasons.
The struggle and not the hustle is what is real. Territorial dominance and egotistical relevance.
The major beneficiary from all this, in spite of the furore over the winner, is Hyundai. The brand now has more exposure than it bargained for and everyone would remember the brand for months to come. No publicity is bad at all in this regard for them.
To think that Don Jazzy and Olamide did a collabo a couple of years back and an anaemic one too, in my opinion. A song which didn’t make sense and was soon forgotten as soon as it came out.
With the storm over this award and the degenerative possibilities it portends, one can only suggest to Hyundai to come out with a new model inspired by this.
And calling that model ‘Hyundai Skelemba’ won’t be a bad idea. The sales might just be something the company can ‘bank’ on.

Nicki Minaj posts selfie with brother following his child rape arrest
Nicki Minaj shared a pic of herself with her older brother, weeks after she paid $100k bail for him following his child rape arrest. It's the first sighting for 37 year old Jelani Maraj after his appearance in court on Dec. 9th. Jelani is facing a possible 25-year prison sentence for charges of first-degree rape and first-degree sexual conduct against a preteen.
